Root password fix for 1.1.3 iPhone FW

fév 25, 2008 I Apple, Bidouille, J'aime.

This has nothing to do with the password file entries. When vt100 launches it runs the login command with a flag to login as root. The mobile user is not allowed to login as root. You basically have to launch vt100 with root permissions. Big Boss has a package that fixes this. Install SUID Lib Fix under SUID Lib Fix. That sets the suid bit on login which will fix the problem. Now you will be able to use the root password to login when terminal prompts you. You might also want to install the BSD Subsystem 2.0 Term fix under Tweaks. This fixes the problem where backspace submits a space instead.

En clair, que ceux qui n’arrivent plus à se logguer via vt-100 installent SUID Lib Fix dans la catégorie Tweaks 1.1.3 de Installer.

Les joies du ssh back in my iPhone, i’m a wireless sys admin :)

One response so far, say something?

  1. Term-vt100 non VA! neanche coi FIX! - ModMyApple.it Says:

    […] dice "password" e non mi fa scrivere, se preo invio mi da "login" Leggo in giro Root password fix for 1.1.3 iPhone FW at Teriiehina.net e quindi installo BSD subsystem term fix e SUID Lib Fix Ma sfortunatamente NON cambia niente Ora […]
